Thank You MAMA MARY

September 9, 2016 by arlene

I hope it is not too late to say “happy birthday Mama Mary”.

For those of you who read my blog regularly, you might have noticed that since 2011, I’ve been getting upward spike every time I blog about Mama Mary’s birthday and the bulk of views comes from my country. I love Mama Mary. Yes, every September 7 and September 8, I get notifications from WordPress. Last year was the highest so far with a total of 4,893 in one day alone.

WordPress has sent me notifications since the other day and again I am amazed by the amount of views I got until this morning. This one is the latest so far with this message:

Your blog, DREAMS AND ESCAPES, appears to be getting more traffic than usual! 303 hourly views – 6 hourly views on average
A spike in your stats.

Your blog, DREAMS AND ESCAPES, appears to be getting more traffic than usual! 303 hourly views – 6 hourly views on average A spike in your stats

Translated into numbers, I got 2,020 views the other day and 2,713 views as of this morning. It is still moving upward. Thank you Mama Mary, my blog posts about you are instrumental in these numbers.

May you all be touched with everyday blessings.

Life starts with a beautiful dream. Life starts in somehow believing that one day you’ll get what you wished and prayed for. Life starts with something you believe you can do and dream about. My entries here are mostly about my journey as a cancer patient, a cancer survivor, a mother, a friend, and about the books I read, places I want to visit and have visited, people I want to meet someday and mostly about the daily grind of simple living. Dreams and Escapes is about having enough faith to go on, the will to live no matter how difficult life may seem sometimes and grateful appreciations of all the things one holds dear. It is about the belief that I could share a little of my journey through writing and writing is an escape for me. When things get a little too hard to bear, I put them into perspective by sharing them here. Dreams and Escapes, why not?

One Day…

Originally posted on DREAMS AND ESCAPES:
My daughter Nissa brought my four-year old grandson to her office the other day. He was there the whole day and enjoyed the office atmosphere with Nissa’s office mates. Yesterday, Nissa came home after work and they had this somewhat innocent conversation: First thing Nate said when I got…

You Did It…

I’m impressed. He did it all on his own. First taste of having a job done well. He took a one-week Kiddy Summer Workshop at one of the branches of McDo. then he got this at the end of the training. Kids could be responsible too when you teach them well.

Starting Them Young

I can’t believe this….haha 🙂 It’s McDonald’s summer promo. One of the kiddie crew for five days starting today, two hours each day. They will be taught burger-making and sundae-making too, but for all we know, it would be more on playing than actually serving meals. He is growing…

Summer Look

Nissa took this shot two weeks ago. It’s Nate’s short, short hair cut for the summer days. I posted it as my profile photo and it earned a lot of comments and likes. It’s the first time since he was a year old that he has his hair trimmed this short. Nate is our little […]

Another Milestone

Yesterday was another milestone in Nate’s life and in ours too, his family. It was a lovely celebration of Moving Up at the Manila Hotel, a two-hour program where they sang and danced. They didn’t have this honors awards but Josef got two awards, Best in Reading and best In Science. So proud of you […]

Going Onwards

This is quite a late update. I have lots of photos of my grandson courtesy of Nissa but I don’t always seem to be able to blog about them. Nate’s grades during the third grading period were a great improvement from the second one. He is surely adjusting to school life. Yes, his grades have […]

Early Summer

I think it is not officially summer yet but two weeks ago Nissa’s family went on another swimming trip. Nate loves the water. We were supposed to go with them but we could not leave mom alone in the house. My eldest brother was not available. Nissa took some photos of their trip. I am […]

For the nth time, I wish I could put into words the thoughts burning in my mind. I feel that more than ever, I have expressed myself badly. I do not know how you could take interest in reading all these muddled thoughts.
